St. Louis' affordability and friendly character make it an attractive location for graduate students and postdocs, including those with families. The metropolitan area of 2.8 million people is large enough to offer quality cultural opportunities, but small enough to be livable. To those accustomed to prices in other parts of the country, St. Louis is surprisingly inexpensive. Visit Bankrate.com's Cost of Living Comparison Calculator to compare St. Louis salaries and cost of living with different cities.

The Washington University Campuses are located in the cosmopolitan neighborhoods of the Central West End, University City and Clayton (see Nearby Neighborhoods section below); where lifestyles are accommodated by affordable apartments with character and enriched by bookstores, coffeehouses and sidewalk cafes.
Separated by the 1,300 acre Forest Park, the campuses are connected by the MetroLink light rail, as well as a MetroBus line. The School of Medicine campus is located east of the park in the Central West End neighborhood and the Danforth campus is located to the west near Clayton and the University City neighborhoods.
